Description

Experience the beauty of Oʻahu South Shore as we sail toward Lēʻahi (Diamond Head) aboard the spacious Haleiwa Queen, a 50ft power catamaran, with 49 seats, an onboard restroom, a shaded deck, and complimentary beverages. Learn the history of Waikīkī where chiefs and commoners once lived. Our local born and raised crew members will share stories of their ancestors and experiences about growing up in this magical place, Hawaiʻi. Waterman their entire lives, our crew will share their passion, love, and respect for the ocean. You will explore the lively and vibrant ocean floor through our magnified glass bottom view ports. Enjoy the clear view of the Pacific Ocean as we cruise over live coral reefs, encounter tropical fish, honu (sea turtles), eel, reef sharks, dolphins, and humpback whales during season. PLEASE NOTE: Our crew will make every effort possible to allow guests to see marine life, but since there are conditions beyond our control, we CANNOT guarantee any animal sightings.

Would go again!

We got to see dolphins and sea turtles! Wish the ride was a little longer and I misunderstood the glass bottom. Would do again though! The 2 guys who were on the boat were funny, fun, and so kind!

Our glass bottom tour

Fun, short and a really happy experience for my kids! Must do in Hawaii. There's ample parking spaces in the area, we didn't have to pay!

The ride was enjoyable and Austin and Brandon were great! I was disappointed we didn't see more ocean life but I know that can't be helped.
